Three cases of rapidly fatal encephalopathy associated with Shigella flexneri infection are reported. There was a lack of severe intestinal involvement and absence of metabolic derangement. In all 3 patients, areas of necrosis were present throughout the brains; and in one case pontine haemorrhages and demyelination were seen. This report supports the evidence of a particular neurotoxic effect in shigellosis.
报告了3例与福氏志贺菌感染相关的快速致死性脑病病例。这些病例缺乏严重的肠道受累情况且不存在代谢紊乱。所有3例患者的整个大脑均出现坏死区域;其中1例可见脑桥出血和脱髓鞘。本报告支持志贺菌病存在特定神经毒性作用的证据。
